The disposable razor was invented in 1895 and patented in 1904. It took 70 before a razor had two blades. Nowadays, five blades are widely available. If this trend continues, we'll have a shaving singularity before 2015 ( http://larvatusprodeo.net/2006/03/25/to-infinity-and-beyond/ http://larvatusprodeo.net/2006/03/25/to-infinity-and-beyond/ ). Lucky Charms were first sold in 1963 with four types of marchmellow. In 2006, this had risen to 14 and we'll have a Lucky Charm singularity by 2012.
